Angie Katsanevas‘ husband, Shawn Trujillo, is speaking out amid rumors of a potential divorce between the two of them.
Following accusations that he was “far right” due to the Instagram pages he was following, which he denied, Shawn is once again defending his social media platform, revealing the truth about the state of his marriage to the 52-year-old Real Housewives of Salt Lake City star — and explaining why he is following divorce coaches, including David Mac and Nawal Houghton.
“After all the assumptions and continued speculation, much like the statement I’ve made on the previous issue, I am compelled to defend who I’ve followed on social media. This has nothing to do with Angie,” Shawn confirmed to Reality Shrine on January 2. “I simply have someone close to me going through a rough time. This person sends me pages with thoughts and info on what they are going through. It’s as simple as that. Nothing more nothing less. I understand we are in the public eye.”
Angie, who married Shawn when she was 21, joined the RHOSLC cast as a “friend” in 2022 for its third season and was upgraded to a full-time role the following year, which she’s maintained in the seasons since.
“Moving forward, I will be more thoughtful on who the internet trolls see. I continue to be astonished by people without a true purpose. I take full responsibility for my naivety when it comes [to] thinking the best [of] people,” Shawn continued.
As RHOSLC fans may have seen, Shawn previously released a statement to Reality Shrine after it was revealed that he was following several conservatives, including Joe Rogan, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Dana White, Lara Trump, and the late Charlie Kirk.
“I’m not far right,” he declared. “It’s nonsense. I gather info. Both right and left but for some reason they only pick up on the right. Everything that is being talked about is all based on assumptions.”
“None of these people bring up the fact that I follow CNN and [Anderson Cooper] or Van Jones. Add Bill Maher,” he added.
The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City season six airs Tuesdays at 8/7c on Bravo.
